may I brag and say that I've heard the full album?

Before Tomas comes in it could be just about any band ranging from God Forbid to Soilwork. There is nothing which aesthetically tells me this is 'At the Gates' other than his voice.
Jesus christ guys. That teaser is like 2 riffs.
I heard their classic album, years ago, couldnt get into, not a bad band at all but never understand the hype around them. Old In Flames or Dark Tranquility sounds more interesting IMO.
It may help if you take into account when it was written. Slaughter of the Soul was so fresh sounding at the time. It still is, but not to the same extent. You had heard nothing like it before, whereas you have 20 years of imitation since then, which desensitizes you a bit. That record sat at the top of Rasputin's music charts for what seemed like years...
